Most steel structure warehouses and factories are built quickly but suffer from high temperatures and poor comfort if the roof is not properly insulated. Somei provides PU and rock wool roof panels, as well as photovoltaic roof panels, to help owners upgrade their buildings into energy-efficient industrial facilities.
For new steel structure warehouses:
Use PU or PIR insulated roof panels as the standard roofing system
Consider photovoltaic roof panels on main roof areas to generate electricity
Combine with insulated wall panels to create a complete envelope
This approach ensures good comfort for workers and protection for stored goods from day one.
Many existing warehouses use single-skin metal sheets that provide little insulation.
Upgrade options:
Replace old sheets with PU or rock wool roof panels
Add PV roof panels where structure and orientation allow
Improve joint details and add gutters to reduce leakage and condensation
An upgrade can often be completed while keeping operations running, with careful planning.
Production workshops often have additional requirements, such as:
Better sound insulation
Fire separation between different areas
Openings for skylights and ventilation
Somei can recommend panel types and accessories to meet these needs, including combining PU and rock wool roof panels within one project.
Whether you are planning a new warehouse or upgrading an existing factory roof, Somei can propose insulated roof panel solutions tailored to your layout and budget.
